Gate News bot reports that Flashbots, a research organization focused on MEV (Maximum Extractable Value), recently issued a warning that spam from MEV Bots is rapidly becoming a major obstacle to blockchain scalability.

According to a message from the Gate.io News bot, former Federal Reserve Board of Governors member Kevin Warsh is a leading candidate to succeed current Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell. Recently, he published an op-ed in The Wall Street Journal, pointing out that the Federal Reserve has reached the limits of its statutory and implied powers, exceeding several long-standing Central Bank principles. He stated that the Federal Reserve's role in economic policy matters within the government is increasingly expanding, and this comprehensive and adaptive expansion has led to systemic errors in macroeconomic policy. Waller emphasized that monetary policy makers should avoid getting involved in fiscal issues. If the Federal Reserve chooses to cross boundaries, it should maintain a consistent stance during times of crisis and prosperity. He believes that the independence of the Federal Reserve primarily relies on its own maintenance, but this does not mean that central bank experts can receive special treatment.
